How's your experience been with visible? I'm seriously considering moving to something else after the last few gaffes.

I've been trying to look into visible, but I don't quite understand it and the reviews are very mixed. The price is appealing, but if it's not moderately fast / reliable then what's it worth.

Charging YOU extra for the benefit of providing THEM with a new money-making device is just them double-dipping.

especially considering that there's no way to opt out / do it yourself. IMO that should be criminal.

WTF. This is my first month with a cellular apple watch.

I just got the first bill and its almost SIXTY FIVE DOLLARS in addition to my phone.

$35 activation fee

$10 watch data

$18 for taxes and fees

While I definitely disagree with the $35 activation fee, I understand it's just a one time charge, but holy shit how can anyone justify almost $30 a month. Literally the fees and taxes cost more than the actual product.
